It was a beautiful sunny day but we didn't even leave the house. It is still very cold (-1 degrees C, which is about 30 degrees F), so looks are very deceiving. Being at home with the two boys left me drained and stressed; the babe is getting his top front teeth and is really cranky and my older son is really good, but was hard to amuse today. We all felt a little restless, as though we all knew that it was officially spring, and our minds and bodies need it, but it hasn't quite happened yet. Like three bears wishing we could all come out of hibernation.

Other than that, my mind was on mute today. I was thinking about Michelle, though, who lives in the vicinity of the landfall for Typhoon Larry. Thankfully, neither she nor her home was injured.

As I had mentioned previously, I read the instructions in haste and so my cherry trees did not really bloom. My son and I enjoyed watching the little crystals emerge, however. Thank you again, Alysa.

The next three days will be really busy with work. I will check in when I can, blog friends.

So it is officially Spring :)....Cathy as u know Canadian weather can be tricky..I think I'll wait another week or 2 before putting away the boots and sweaters and bringing out the capris's and open toe..lol

I worked my ass off today and accomplished an enormous amount of work. I finally had the chance to eat my breakfast at 4 in the afternoon and by that time I had to pick up the babe and get supper!I have just as much to do tomorrow. Loads of little work details and then I can spend Thursday writing. Just research and writing all day....

Blackcrag; I had intended to change those, I just hadn't had the chance yet; but they are fixed, so there ;)

Richard; I am thrilled that I was able to help you out. You will be fine and so will HH.

About Me

I'm not a lumberjack or a fur trader.
I don't live in an igloo, eat blubber or own a dogsled.
I don't know Jimmy Suzie or Sally from Canada,
Although I'm certain they're very nice.
I have a prime minister, not a president,
I speak English and French, not American.
And I pronounce it 'about' not 'a-boot.'
I can proudly sew my country's flag on my backpack.
I believe in peacekeeping, not policing;
Diversity, not assimilation.
And that the beaver is a proud and noble animal.
A tuque is a hat, a chesterfield is a couch.
And it's pronounced zed. OK? Not zee. Zed.
Canada is the second-largest land mass,
the first nation of women's hockey
and the best part of North America.
My name is Cathy and I am Canadian.
